The first thing you see as you enter Supetar harbour from Split is the Mausoleum of the family Petrinovic. Set amongst ornate cyprus and pine trees in the cemetery, the Mausoleum is the work of Croatian artist - Toma Rosandic (1878-1957). By the church of St Nicholas, there are two early Christian sarcophagi with crosses and just below the cemetery, the ruins of the Roman Villa Rustica.
We recommend you visit The Parish Church of Annunciation (18th c.) along with the surrounding buildings of (Leroj – the clock tower) and the Church Museum.
Outside the church, do not miss the early Christian mosaics dating back to the 6th century. The church itself was built on the site of an early Christian basilica dedicated to St Peter – hence the towns name Supetar!
Whilst in the cemetery, you will also find a number of tombstones by the renowned Croatian sculptor Ivan Rendic (1849 -1932). Some of the finest examples are the Pieta, above the tomb of Mihovil Franasovic, the Art Nouveau styled tomb of Rinaldo Culic, and the Mausoleum of the family Radnic.
